" What a treat! I visited Tacos La Carreta expecting great things based on the reviews, and boy did they deliver! The carne asada was so fresh and tasty, accompanied by their homemade salsas, it was a match made in heaven. I was also impressed by the friendly staff who were very welcoming. The atmosphere felt lively and fun, and it was clear everyone was enjoying themselves. I will surely return, can't get enough of those tacos! " (*Curated Review*)

" The hype is real at Tacos La Carreta! I tried several tacos, and each one was a symphony of flavors. The carne asada was spot on, seasoned excellently, and cooked to perfection. Also, their sauces were diverse and complemented the meats beautifully. I felt the prices were reasonable considering the quality of food served. The only small downside is that the place is a bit small and gets crowded, but I believe the food more than makes up for that. Don’t miss this place if you're in Long Beach! " (*Curated Review*)

" I tried the carne asada tacos and they were absolutely scrumptious! The meat was perfectly grilled and had a lovely smoky flavor. Their salsas came in a variety and were a perfect match for the tacos. I would highly recommend Tacos La Carreta for anyone looking for authentic Mexican tacos with bold flavors. The small ambiance gives it that local vibe, though it was quite busy during my visit. Still, worth the wait for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, this might be the best taco place on the West Coast! The second you walk in, it smells like home. The carne asada is perfectly seasoned and grilled, and the tortillas are entirely handmade! It reminds me of back home in Mexico. I was blown away by the flavors - very authentic, just as good as the street tacos you would find in Mexico. The only drawback? You can only pay with cash, which caught me off guard, but honestly, for the quality, it’s worth it. I will be coming back for sure! " (*Curated Review*)

" Honestly, if you're in Long Beach and craving tacos, skip the others and head straight to Tacos La Carreta. The variety of salsas they provide is impressive; each one brings a unique kick that elevates the tacos. I particularly loved their carne asada—tender, flavorful, and well-cooked. Their prices are fair for the quality you receive, and the no-frills environment makes you feel like you’re snacking right in Sinaloa. Highly recommend! " (*Curated Review*)

" I discovered Tacos La Carreta after hearing so much about their carne asada tacos, and wow, I was not disappointed! The moment I took a bite, I was reminded of the authentic street tacos I had in Sinaloa. They serve them with fresh ingredients and a variety of salsas that only enhance the flavors. It's a little place, which gives it a cozy vibe, perfect for a casual outing. The staff was friendly and accommodating, making the experience even better. Can't wait to come back for more! " (*Curated Review*)

" Looking for authentic Sinaloan tacos? Then Tacos La Carreta is the place to be! The carne asada was richly flavored, and the tortillas were fresh and handmade. The atmosphere is casual, fitting for a taco truck setting. The service is friendly and quick even during rush hour. It's a shame they don't accept credit cards, but honestly, the food is so good that it’s worth the trip to an ATM. I'm excited for my next visit! " (*Curated Review*)
